Effective November 8, 2026. Tidepath is published by Muntaser Syed. Contact jemsbhai@gmail.com for support. These terms describe this Chrome extension and local companion; the separate Tidepath website application and Google Workspace add-on are outside this scope.
Use and costs
The extension and companion source are available without a Tidepath subscription or per-scan fee. You supply your own computer, runtime, network access and authorized Google account. Google account restrictions, API quotas and third-party service availability still apply. A local companion must be installed and running; this is not a hosted processing service.
Deterministic checks require no AI key. If you choose optional AI advice, you supply your own OpenAI API key and approve the exact outgoing request. You are responsible for charges under your own API account. A timeout or failed response can still incur charges, and request limits do not establish a guaranteed spending cap. No automatic paid fallback is provided.
Your authorization and review
Use only workbooks you are permitted to access and process. Exclude private counseling, health and other unsuitable confidential records before scanning. Known-label exclusions cannot recognize every sensitive value. Review the selected scope, mappings and each proposed change before approving a correction copy.
Tidepath flags data-quality issues; it does not establish the truth of a record, resolve every ambiguity or replace your judgment. AI output is untrusted advice and cannot approve or apply corrections. Do not use findings as the sole basis for decisions about a person, a payment or access to services.
Copies and capability limits
Corrections are written to separate workbooks, not the originals. Copies preserve eligible data and number formats, but do not reproduce excluded private data, general styling, charts, comments, scripts or sharing settings. Formula-bearing sources are blocked from correction-copy creation. Keep the original records and inspect the copy's status.
Source edits, revoked access, quotas and connection failures can interrupt work. Multiple-workbook operations are not a single transaction and can be partial. A verified status records a successful readback at that time; it is not a guarantee against later edits. Use the recorded recovery operation instead of blindly requesting another copy after an uncertain result.
Data and removal
The privacy policy describes local journals, Google authorization, optional OpenAI transfer and retention. Protect your device, credentials and backups. Stopping or uninstalling the extension does not remove local journals, downloaded reports or Google correction workbooks. Follow the removal and recovery instructions.
License and availability
The source is provided under the repository's MIT License, including its copyright notice and warranty disclaimer. The software is provided as is, without a warranty of fitness for a particular purpose or a guarantee of uninterrupted availability or complete error detection. These terms do not replace the rights granted by that license.
No public store approval, OAuth verification or support for an untested platform is implied by access to this page. Google and OpenAI provide their own services under their respective terms. The publisher may update software and these terms; material changes to data practices will also be disclosed through the privacy policy and product as applicable.
